Molecular communication in nanonetworks uses molecules as information carriers, and in molecule shift keying (MoSK) the complexity of transmitter and receiver grows with the modulation order due to the need for multiple molecule types. The authors propose depleted MoSK (D‑MoSK), a modulation technique that releases molecules only when the bit is 1 and emits none for a 0. D‑MoSK encodes bits by emitting molecules only for a 1, leaving no emission for a 0, thereby reducing the number of molecule types needed. The proposed D‑MoSK reduces the number of molecule types required and, according to numerical results, achieves higher rates and lower symbol error rates compared to conventional MoSK.
Molecular communication in nanonetworks is an emerging communication paradigm that uses molecules as information carriers. In molecule shift keying (MoSK), where different types of molecules are used for encoding, transmitter and receiver complexities increase as the modulation order increases. We propose a modulation technique called depleted MoSK (D-MoSK) in which, molecules are released if the information bit is 1 and no molecule is released for 0. The proposed scheme enjoys reduced number of the types of molecules for encoding. Numerical results show that the achievable rate is considerably higher and symbol error rate (SER) performance is better in the proposed technique.
